Your New York Knicks are the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, after knocking off the shorthanded Boston Celtics in the season’s final game.

The Knicks face a simple proposition: win, and you’re the No. 4 seed in the East. Lose, and you’re leaving it to fate. They’re facing the Celtics’ C team in this game — the first option is the only option.

These young but maturing Knicks continued to impress once again, pulling out a win late in a game that a previous iteration of the team may have lost vs. the Hornets on Saturday.

The Knicks coughed up an 18-point lead in regulation, leading them to overtime. But a stifling performance on defense and a reinvigorated offense let the Knicks cruise to victory over the Hornets in the extra five minutes.

The Knicks face a crucial pair of matinee games to close the season, with both wins basically required if they want to have a shot at reclaiming the fourth seed. Can they take care of the Hornets at home?

The Knicks courted disaster in the third quarter, letting a 3-point halftime lead turn into a 17-point deficit. Thankfully, some high-scoring antics from RJ Barrett and Alec Burks down the stretch saved the game, and pushed the Knicks to eight games over .500 in the key final stretch of the season.

After falling behind big in the third quarter (thanks to the “efforts” of a certain starting point guard), the Knicks stormed back on the backs of RJ Barrett, Alec Burks, and Julius Randle to take a huge win at home.

The Knicks return home as a newly-minted playoff team, looking for revenge over the Spurs after they drubbed New York back in March. Can the Knicks close out the season with a bang and get higher playoff seeding than their guaranteed sixth?

The Knicks and Julius Randle are cruising towards a maximum contract negotiation. Is it possible that one of the solutions that gets Julius the most money could actually be the one that preserves a high amount of cap flexibility for the Knicks?

The Knicks lost a one-possession game in overtime to the defending NBA Champion Lakers. This season has been a much better outcome than anyone could have imagined, so it begs the question: Why did this loss hurt so bad?

The Knicks played a grind-it-out, ‘90s-style game on the road in Los Angeles, ultimately running out of steam and losing, 101-99, to the Lakers to end their road trip with a 3-3 record.

The dreaded Western Conference road trip is almost at an end. Can the Knicks emerge from Los Angeles with a winning record during this trip?

The Knicks have been one of the more futile franchises in sport for a good chunk of their history — that means there’s been plenty of opportunities for the team to bounce back as well. Where does this Knick team rank in terms of feel-goodness?

The New York Knicks snapped out of back-to-back losses in a big way on Sunday, holding off Kawhi Leonard and the LA Clippers, 106-100. 

The Knicks needed a win, and gutted one out in Los Angeles against a tough Clippers team on the road, pushing their way towards a top-6 seed and a guaranteed playoff berth.

The Knicks look to break their recent skid against the Clippers, who have been somewhat beatable lately. But it’s going to take a full 48 minute effort.

Julius Randle, thanks to his well-built frame and technical designation of “power forward,” is often compared to his big man contemporaries. But after a recent interview revealed that Randle has used Kawhi Leonard as his inspiration to improve this year, is it almost more appropriate to judge Randle as a wing?

The Knicks dropped their second straight game in embarrassing fashion, blowing a double-digit lead and tanking the fourth quarter in the Valley of the Sun on the 51st anniversary of the Knicks’ first championship.

The Knicks came back from an early deficit to take the lead from the Suns in the second half, at one point even leading by double digits. Unfortunately, there was a whole fourth quarter to play, and they got decimated.

Can the Knicks rebound from one of their more embarrassing losses of the season? They get a prime chance in the Valley of the Sun against a team that beat them with some late game heroics just a couple weeks ago.
